IPL 2026: Sundar’s Innings Addressed A Key Question Around GT’s Middle Order, Says Ashwin
Sawai Mansingh Stadium: Former India off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has lauded Washington Sundar's unbeaten 40 leading the side to a four-wicket victory over Punjab Kings, adding that the all-rounder's composed knock has effectively answered lingering questions regarding the side’s middle-order depth.
Washington walked out to bat when GT were 94/3 and remained unbeaten on 40 off just 23 balls, striking at 173.91, to help the 2022 IPL winners get over the line in a chase of 164. With his calm and composed demeanour, Washington ensured the required rate never went out of control and fittingly sealed the chase in style with a maximum.
“Washington Sundar’s innings was extremely important because it addressed a key question around Gujarat Titans’ middle order. While a lot of their runs come from the top three, contributions like this show the depth they have.
